The Strokes reveal release date and title for new album

Last week, we found out that The Strokes are indeed releasing a new album this year. Now, they have revealed not only the album name, but also the release date. Their fifth album entitled “Comedown Machine” will be released March 26. An official statement was released by the band's record label, Rough Trade, who confirmed that the first single will be “All the Time.” Strokes fans got a gift from the band in the form of a new track “One Way Trigger” as a free download. Rumors circulated last year that the guys were working on their follow up to 2011's “Angles,” but it was confirmed by guitarist Albert Hammond Jr's father that they were indeed working on their next record.
